NAME

rplay.hosts - rplay host authentication database

SYNOPSIS

/usr/local/etc/rplay.hosts

DESCRIPTION

The rplay.hosts file contains a list of hosts and access permissions
which rplayd uses to validate incoming connections. Each line is of
the form:
hostname[:permission]
where
hostname is the name of a remote host or a host’s IP address.
Wildcards can be used within IP addresses to match
multiple hosts. The wildcard character is "*".
permission is an optional field containing any combination of the
following characters:
r the host can read sounds.
w the host can write sounds.
x the host can play, stop, pause, and continue sounds.
This is normally called execute permission.
m the host can monitor the audio stream written by
rplayd to the audio device.
"rx" permissions are used when no permissions are specified.

BUGS

The permissions for an "*" entry apply to all matching hosts. The
order of this file does not matter. Specific hosts can have access
disabled with entries like:
bad.guy.edu:
however, any matching "*" entries will still apply.
